There are 3 possible ways to give out 5 candies to 3 kids (Ana, Bob, Charlie) with each receiving 0, 1, or 2 candies.
The Inclusion-Exclusion Principle is a technique used in combinatorics to correctly count elements, ensuring that each element in the union is counted exactly once.
The principle involves systematically accounting for elements that are shared among different sets to compute the size of a set or the probability of complex events.
Formulas are provided for calculating the number of elements in the union of two or three sets using the Inclusion-Exclusion Principle.
